Liquimoly leichtwaffe or whatever its name is 5w40 is kind of the only oil I think of using in any somewhat old euro car. It’s good shit.
Liqui Moly from FCP Euro, return the old oil and filter every time you need an oil change. Fantastic quality oil for minimal cost.
Liqui Moly 0w-20 is what I been running for 15,000 miles and not a single issue. Fuel economy, engine heat and engine lubrication all are benefits and I change between 3000-4000 miles.
liqui moly user here, pinakamahal na ata na oil brand para sa motor ko.. sa 150cc cvt scooter category sagad na po ang 5k kms as per technical expert, kahit street race oil pa yan ng liqui moly ung top of the line. pero ung bago nila labas na molygen mas okay sa traffic use.
Preferred Castrol edge 0w-20 during the warranty period and 5w-30 after the warranty period. The engine is quieter with 5w-30.
The ss will have Castrol that they use for big bikes it’s better than prolube and Motul 7100 in my experience.
I switched from pennzoil (0-38k miles)to liquimoly (38k-72k miles). Noticeably quieter, oil came out a bit lighter at each change. My dash says I gained about 1mpg and so did my overall range but people will attack you on that claim lol.
I just use Castrol magnatec 10w40 here in the Netherlands in my m20.
I am burning around 0.75qt every 2k KM (1200 miles). I've also tried all the vw508 different oils hoping for a better outcome (vw brand oil, liqui moly 6200, motul specific 508) but no change really. at this point i live with it but always carry around a spare 1-2qt if you are travelling far away in the back.
My 2013 GTI I believe has been running off of 5w-40 since I bought it. Supplied a shop with European 5w-40 and it still ran fine. Now it's winter, 6-12F outside and I just got the oil changed at a local drive and shine to 5W30 full synthetic and the GTI is running like garbage! RPMs are staggering all over when it goes into neutral, instead of 750RPMS it likes 1k to be normal. It just overall feels wrong.
